I was a little delayed on listening to this one, and really didn’t finish it.
So Jonah was deploring white identity politics, and that it’s becoming more and more popular. He brings up the VDare website, etc.
He then mentions that he is an agreement, or at least is ok with journalists capitalizing Black in their articles, but not white (when referring to the race).
I’m not comfortable with whites being Whites either, but I’ve always seen the other racial groups in the same way. I’m against all identity politics, but it seems like identity politics is interested in me.
As for Jonah’s being comfortable with Blacks and whites, it’s exactly that attitude that’s driving white/White identity politics. He’s not as bad as the white protesters who are kneeling to Blacks, but it’s just a matter of degree.
My middle ground is for whites/Whites to stand up for ourselves without going the White Power route. And that especially goes for criticizing self hating white journalists who have decided to capitalize everything but white.
